Revisiting a childhood favorite...

As a kid, my mom would occasionally make crescent-wrapped cheese dogs. My sisters and I loved them. Even my husband loves them. After talking to my friend Jess one day about what to do about a bunch of hot sausage she had to cook up, we sort of devised this idea. It's beyond simple, and as always, versatile.

1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.2. In a skillet, brown the butterflied sausage links over medium heat.3. After the sausage is done, roll out the crescent roll dough and create 2 squares by pressing or rolling the triangles together.4. Lay mozzarella on one half of each crescent square. Top with sausage link and close by pressing edges together.5. Place on parchment lined baking sheet.6. Sprinkle a bit of parmesan cheese on top and bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

So for those cooks who are looking for something quick, simple and delicious for dinner, give this one a try!
